As you mentioned in your post in the other thread it shouldn't take a priority, but if the overview is to be exactly as written, this would help. There's already bold and italics, so why not. | | | Reviewer, HorrorTalk.com

| Posted: | | | | Don't forget then AR, that we need to be able to adjust the font size of the letters too so that they can match the back cover better: particularly being able to make the first letter in the first paragraph two or three times larger than the rest Certainly not high on a priority list (like Pete said, I don't think that I have any profiles with them,) but still, might as well have it available. +0.5 | | | If at first you don't succeed, skydiving isn't for you.

| Posted: | | | | Agreed. It'd be nice to have but not a big deal. At first thought I'd also say color, but that would open a can of worms since quite a few covers are while on a darker background, imagine the 'discussion' that would ensue over that! | | | HDTV: 52" Toshiba Regza 52XV545U AVR: Onkyo TR-707 Speakers: Paradigm Monitor 7 v6, CC-190 & Atom Monitors Subwoofer: Definitive Technology ProSub 800 BD/DVD: Oppo BDP-93 (Region Free) HD PVR: Motorola DXC3400 500GB w/ 1TB Expander BD/DVD/Game: 250GB PS3 Slim DVD/Game: 250GB XBox 360 Elite Special Edition (Black) Game: Wii Remote: Logitech Harmony One w/ PS3 Adapter WHS: Acer H341 Windows Home Server |

I think he was probably talking about my colors comments, which was more of thinking out loud than a suggestion. I agree with him in respect to that, but if adding an underline is as easy as it first appears I don't see why it shouldn't be added. | | | HDTV: 52" Toshiba Regza 52XV545U AVR: Onkyo TR-707 Speakers: Paradigm Monitor 7 v6, CC-190 & Atom Monitors Subwoofer: Definitive Technology ProSub 800 BD/DVD: Oppo BDP-93 (Region Free) HD PVR: Motorola DXC3400 500GB w/ 1TB Expander BD/DVD/Game: 250GB PS3 Slim DVD/Game: 250GB XBox 360 Elite Special Edition (Black) Game: Wii Remote: Logitech Harmony One w/ PS3 Adapter WHS: Acer H341 Windows Home Server |

| Posted: | | | | if we did colour - just imagine the changes done becasuse people have differently configured screens... It could also apply to bold or italic - what actual value does this give above that of having the plain text (which is there so people can search it)? I just can't see how it's better than having the cover visible. [this is just thinking out aloud - it doesn't require a response] | | | Paul | | | Last edited: by pauls42 |

So to make a long story short, a complete audited contribution was remove (I don't want denied contribution in my history log) because of something trivial like this... Sad for those who will get the dvd and get a useless pre-release profile. |
